The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to Article 272 of the EC Treaty and Article 177 of the Euratom Treaty, |
|
— |
having regard to Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities (1) and particularly Articles 37 and 38 thereof, |

|
— |

|
— |

Mid-term review of EU-Greenland fisheries protocol
European Parliament resolution on a communication from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament on mid-term review of the fourth fisheries protocol between the EU and Greenland (COM(2002) 697 — 2003/2035(INI))
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the communication from the Commission (COM(2002) 697), |
|
— |
having regard to the conclusions of the Fisheries Council of 30 October 1997 with regard to international fisheries agreements, |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 16 May 2001 on the conclusion of the Fourth Protocol to the Agreement on fisheries between the European Economic Community, on the one hand, and the Government of Denmark and the local government of Greenland, on the other (1), |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 17 January 2002 on the Commission Green Paper on the future of the common fisheries policy (2), |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 20 November 2002 on the Commission communication on the reform of the common fisheries policy (‘Roadmap’) (3), |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 16 January 2003 on the Northern Dimension — New Action Plan 2004-2006 (4), |
|
— |
having regard to the Court of Auditors' Special Report 3/2001 concerning the Commission's management of the international fisheries agreements (5), and the annual report on the 2001 financial year (6), |
|
— |
having regard to Rules 47(2) and 163 of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Fisheries and the opinion of the Committee on Budgets (A5-0228/2003), |
|
A. |
whereas international fisheries agreements between the Community and third countries must be governed by the same principles, without distinction, within an integrated framework for the conclusion of fisheries agreements, including the principles of governance, transparency and optimal use of the Union's budgetary resources, |
|
B. |
whereas the Treaty of withdrawal or Greenland Treaty, which governs relations between the Community and Greenland, provides for the unrestricted exporting of Greenland fisheries products to the Community in return for a fisheries agreement with satisfactory possibilities, |
|
C. |
whereas the framework for relations between the Community and Greenland needs to be reassessed and, in the last phase of the European Convention and on the eve of an intergovernmental conference, this is the right time to make changes to Article 188 of the Treaty to make it possible to reach a cooperation agreement with Greenland, as well as a fisheries agreement, |
|
D. |
whereas this agreement is the second most important agreement signed by the Community in terms of financial compensation, though not in terms of catch possibilities, |
|
E. |
whereas the Court of Auditors has severely criticised the Commission's management of fisheries agreements, and in particular the atypical features of this fisheries agreement and the fact that financial compensation is disproportionate by comparison with catches, |
|
F. |
whereas, nevertheless, close relations need to be maintained between the Community and Greenland, and Greenland has an important role to play in maintaining sustainable development throughout the Arctic region, occupying a central position in the Nordic dimension of Union policy, |
|
G. |
whereas, through the exchange of quotas, this fisheries agreement allows Community vessels to fish in the fishing grounds of Iceland, Norway and the Faroes, |
|
H. |
whereas on the other hand this represents an injustice, since thanks to Community financial resources it is possible for vessels from those three countries to fish in Greenland's fishing grounds, whilst other vessels from the Community fleet are not able to do so, |
|
I. |
whereas this agreement is important for Greenland, given that the EUR 42.82 million per year in financial compensation represent 4 % of its GDP, i.e. EUR 900 per head, |
|
J. |
whereas financial cooperation has been increasing in each protocol, whilst fishing possibilities have been reduced, |
|
K. |
whereas financial compensation must precisely reflect the commercial value of the rights obtained, without including other elements, and costs must be divided between the Community and shipowners in an appropriate way, |
|
L. |
whereas the fishing rights obtained in an agreement must correspond to the actual catches, in terms of quantity and species, which can be expected from it on the basis of the available scientific reports, |
|
M. |
whereas it is necessary for the Community fleet to make optimal use of fishing possibilities, avoiding a situation where quotas remain unused at the end of the year, |
|
N. |
whereas the Community has extensive experience in setting up joint ventures with third countries, and joint ventures have beneficial effects for the Community and for the development of local fishing industries, |
|
O. |
whereas, owing to the characteristics of the Greenland fishing industry and in the light of the experience of recent years, temporary partnerships between firms represent the most suitable instrument for cooperation between the Community and Greenland in the field of fisheries, |
|
P. |
whereas the proposals made by the Commission for future cooperation with Greenland after 2006 are not restricted to fisheries aspects, |
|
Q. |
whereas Greenland has Overseas Country and Territory status, |
|
1. |
Welcomes the presentation of the mid-term review by the Commission and underlines that this is an important step by the Commission to meet the European Parliament's request for the presentation of general assessment reports, including cost benefit analyses, before the start of negotiations on renewals or new protocols or agreements; |
|
2. |
Recognises the special relationship between the European Union and Greenland, and the specific economic situation of Greenland; |
|
3. |
Shares with the Commission the resolve to reach a general cooperation agreement between the Community and Greenland which will bring about closer relations between both parties and enable Greenland to participate in Community policies; |
|
4. |
Recognises the need to provide financial assistance to Greenland, but rejects the present approach of including such assistance in the financial compensation linked to the fisheries agreement; |
|
5. |
Calls on the Council to issue a mandate to the Commission to negotiate a revision of the current protocol in line with the comments made by the Court of Auditors and the European Parliament and, in particular, to separate non-fisheries-related elements from this agreement; |
|
6. |
Endorses the proposal made by the Commission in its communication that the protocol be adjusted during the mid-term review so that catch quotas are allocated that are in line with scientific advice and some of the financial compensation is earmarked for supporting a consistent local fisheries policy; |
|
7. |
Insists that non-fisheries-related aspects of relations between the EU and Greenland should be financed under heading 4 of the financial perspective (external action), or through the European Development Fund; |
|
8. |
Urges the Council and Commission, as part of this mid-term review, to consider the need to share the cost of this agreement equitably between the Community and shipowners, in a similar way to the sharing of costs in the majority of international fisheries agreements; |
|
9. |
Reiterates its request that the Commission draw up a cost-benefit analysis of this agreement; |
|
10. |
Draws attention to the low use of the fishing possibilities laid down in the protocol and the consequent waste of Community financial resources; |
|
11. |
Calls, therefore, for an improvement in the way in which catch rights on each species are determined, in line with the actual state of each stock, and for it to be possible for quotas which have been allocated and not used by the fleets of the Member States referred to in the protocol to be used by others, as laid down in fisheries agreements with financial compensation; |
|
12. |
Calls on the Commission to boost the setting-up of joint ventures between the Community and Greenland and, in particular, temporary partnerships between undertakings, which may play an extremely important role in the development of the local economy and in increased utilisation of fishing rights; calls for some of the financial compensation to be earmarked for this purpose; |
|
13. |
Demands that the Commission fulfil its obligation duly to report to Parliament on this agreement, at the stages of preparation, implementation, evaluation and mid-term review; |
|
14. |
Asks to be involved in the process of negotiation with Greenland under the mid-term review procedure; |
|
15. |
Underlines that, before the expiration of the current fourth protocol of the fisheries agreement in December 2006, the Commission shall present a proposal for a new protocol where the financial compensation only corresponds to the effective utilisation of fishing possibilities financed under chapter 11 03 (former chapter B7-80), and at the same time, a proposal for an agreement on financial assistance to Greenland in line with the normal budgetary rules on development cooperation; |
|
16. |
Considers it appropriate that its competent committees draw up an own-initiative report to define the future relationship between the Community and Greenland from 2006 onwards; |
|
17. |
Calls on the Greenland authorities to acknowledge the desirability of incorporating the appropriate amendments to improve this protocol during the mid-term review, without needing to await its expiry; |
|
18. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the government of the Kingdom of Denmark and the local government of Greenland. |

Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 3 September 2003 with a view to the adoption of European Parliament and Council Directive 2003/.../EC amending Directive 2001/25/EC on the minimum level of training of seafarers
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 80(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions (1),
Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (2),
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Directive 2001/25/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 April 2001 on the minimum level of training of seafarers (3) defines minimum training, certification and watchkeeping standards for seafarers serving on board Community ships. Those standards are based on the standards agreed in the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers, 1978, as amended (‘the STCW Convention’). |
|
(2) |
In order to maintain and develop the level of knowledge and skills in the maritime sector in the EU, it is important to pay appropriate attention to maritime training and the status of seafarers in the EU. |
|
(3) |
It is essential to ensure that seafarers holding certificates issued by third countries and serving on board Community ships have a level of competence equivalent to that required by the Convention. Directive 2001/25/EC lays down procedures and common criteria for the recognition by the Member States of certificates issued by third countries. |
|
(4) |
Directive 2001/25/EC provides for the reassessment of the procedures and criteria for the recognition of certificates issued by third countries and the approval of maritime training institutes and maritime education and training programmes and courses, in the light of the experience gained in applying the Directive. |
|
(5) |
The practical implementation of Directive 2001/25/EC has shown that some adjustments to those procedures and criteria could contribute greatly towards the reliability of the system of recognition, while simplifying the monitoring and reporting obligations imposed on Member States. |
|
(6) |
Compliance of third countries that provide training with the requirements of the STCW Convention can be assessed more effectively in a harmonised manner. The Commission should therefore be entrusted with this task on behalf of the whole Community. |
|
(7) |
In order to ensure that a country which is recognised continues to comply fully with the requirements of the STCW Convention, the recognition should be reviewed regularly and extended if appropriate. The recognition of a third country not complying with the requirements of the STCW Convention should be withdrawn until deficiencies are redressed. |
|
(8) |
Decisions to extend or withdraw recognition can be taken more effectively in a harmonised and centralised manner, at Community level. The Commission should therefore be entrusted with these tasks on behalf of the whole Community. |
|
(9) |
The continuous monitoring of the compliance of the recognised third countries can be carried out more effectively in a harmonised and centralised manner. |
|
(10) |
One of the tasks assigned to the European Maritime Safety Agency (the Agency) is to assist the Commission in the performance of any task assigned to it by Community legislation applicable to training, certification and watchkeeping of ships' crews. |
|
(11) |
The Agency should therefore assist the Commission in the performance of its tasks relating to the granting, extension and withdrawal of recognition of third countries. It should also assist the Commission in the monitoring of third countries' compliance with the requirements of the STCW Convention. |
|
(12) |
The STCW Convention specifies language requirements for certificates and endorsements attesting the issue of a certificate. The existing provisions of Directive 2001/25/EC should be brought into line with the relevant requirements of the Convention. |
|
(13) |
The International Convention for the safety of life at sea, 1974, as amended (SOLAS Convention) lays down language requirements for bridge-to-shore safety communications. Directive 2001/25/EC should be updated in accordance with the recent recent amendments to that Convention, which entered into force on 1 July 2002. |
|
(14) |
It is necessary to provide for procedures for adapting this Directive to future changes in Community law. |
|
(15) |
Directive 2001/25/EC should be amended accordingly, |
HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
Directive 2001/25/EC is amended as follows:
|
(1) |
Article 5 is amended as follows:
|

In Article 18, paragraph 3 is replaced by the following: ‘3. Seafarers who do not possess the certificates referred to in Article 4 may be allowed to serve on ships flying the flag of a Member State, provided a decision on the recognition of their appropriate certificates has been adopted through the procedure set out below:
(4) 18 months after the entry into force of the Directive.’" |
|
(4) |
The following Articles 18a and 18b are inserted : ‘ Article 18a 1. Notwithstanding the criteria specified in Annex II, when a Member State considers that a recognised third country no longer complies with the requirements of the STCW Convention, it shall notify the Commission immediately, giving substantiated reasons therefor. The Commission shall without delay refer the matter to the Committee referred to in Article 23. 2.

The Commission shall without delay refer the matter to the Committee referred to in Article 23. 3. When a Member State intends to withdraw the endorsements of all certificates issued by a third country it shall without delay inform the Commission and the other Member States of its intention , giving substantiated reasons therefor. 4. The Commission, assisted by the Agency, shall reassess the recognition of the third country concerned in order to verify whether that country failed to comply with the requirements of the STCW Convention. 5. Where there are indications that a particular maritime training institute no longer complies with the requirements of the STCW Convention, the Commission shall notify the country concerned that recognition of that country's certificates will be withdrawn within two months unless measures are taken to ensure compliance with all the requirements of the STCW Convention. 6. The decision on the withdrawal of the recognition shall be taken in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 23(2), within two months from the date of the communication made by the Member State. The Member States concerned shall take appropriate measures to implement the decision. 7. Endorsements attesting recognition of certificates, issued in accordance with Article 5(6) before the date on which the decision to withdraw recognition of the third country is taken, shall remain valid. However, seafarers holding such endorsements may not claim an endorsement recognising a higher qualification, unless that upgrading is based solely on additional seagoing service. Article 18b 1. The third countries that have been recognised under the procedure referred to in Article 18(3)(b) , including those referred to in Article 18(3)(f), shall be reassessed by the Commission, with the assistance of the Agency, on a regular basis and at least every five years to verify whether they fulfil the relevant criteria set out in Annex II and whether appropriate measures have been taken to prevent fraud involving certificates of competence . 2. The Commission shall define the priority criteria for assessment of third countries on the basis of performance data provided by the Port State control pursuant to Article 20, as well as the information relating to the reports of the independent assessments carried out by third countries pursuant to section A-I/7 of the STCW Code. 3. The Commission shall provide the Member States with a report on the results of the assessment.'’ |

P5_TC1-COD(1998)0360
Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 3 September 2003 with a view to the adoption of European Parliament and Council Regulation (EC) No .../2003 on coordination of social security systems
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Articles 18, 42 and 308 thereof,
Having regard to the Commission proposal (1) presented after consultation with the social partners and the Administrative Commission on Social Security for Migrant Workers,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (2),
Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (3),
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Whereas the rules for coordination of national social security legislations fall within the framework of free movement for persons and should contribute towards improving their standard of living and conditions of employment; |
|
(2) |
Whereas the close link between social security legislation and those contractual provisions which complement or replace such legislation and which have been the subject of a decision of the public authorities rendering them compulsory or extending their scope calls for a similar protection with regard to the application of those provisions as that afforded by this Regulation, in particular as far as aggregation of periods of insurance and the waiving of residence clauses for entitlement to benefits is concerned; |
|
(3) |
Whereas, due to the large differences existing between national legislations in terms of the persons convered, it is preferable to lay down the principle that the Regulation applies to all persons who are or have been subject to the social security legislation of a Member State; |
|
(4) |
Whereas the principle of equal treatment is of particular importance for frontier workers, who face particular problems because they do not reside in the State of employment; |
|
(5) |
Whereas it is necessary to respect the special characteristics of national social security legislations and to draw up only a system of coordination; |
|
(6) |
Whereas it is necessary, within the framework of such coordination, to guarantee within the Community equality of treatment under the various national legislations to the persons involved; |
|
(7) |
Whereas there is a need for greater convergence between rules, such as those determining residence in the agreements on double taxation and Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 of 14 June 1971 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community (4); |
|
(8) |
Whereas the coordination rules must guarantee that persons moving within the Community and their dependants and their survivors retain the rights and the advantages acquired and in the course of being acquired; |
|
(9) |
Whereas these objectives must be attained in particular by aggregation of all the periods taken into account under the various national legislations for the purpose of acquiring and retaining the right to benefits and of calculating the amount of benefits, and by the provision of benefits for the various categories of persons covered by the Regulation; |
|
(10) |
Whereas, within the Community, it is not in principle justified to make social security rights dependent on the place of residence of the person involved; nevertheless, in specific cases, in particular as regards special benefits linked to the economic and social context of the person involved, the place of residence could be taken into account; |
|
(11) |
Whereas it is necessary to subject persons moving within the Community to the social security scheme of only one single Member State in order to avoid overlapping of national legislations applicable and the complications which could result therefrom; |
|
(12) |
Whereas, with a view to guaranteeing the equality of treatment of all persons occupied in the territory of a Member State as effectively as possible, it is appropriate to determine as the legislation applicable, as a general rule, that of the Member State in which the person involved pursues his activity as an employed or self-employed person, in full respect and mutual recognition of relevant regulation in the Member State of origin; |
|
(13) |
Whereas, in specific situations which justify other criteria of applicability, it is necessary to derogate from this general rule; |
|
(14) |
Whereas, in the field of sickness and maternity benefits, persons living or staying in a Member State other than the competent Member State should be afforded protection; |
|
(15) |
Whereas the specific position of pension claimants and pensioners and the members of their families makes it necessary to have provisions governing sickness insurance adapted to this situation; |
|
(16) |
Whereas for invalidity benefits a system of coordination should be drawn up which respects the specific characteristics of national legislations, in particular as regards recognition of invalidity and aggravation thereof; |
|
(17) |
Whereas it is necessary to devise a system for the award of old-age benefits and survivors' benefits where the person involved has been subject to the legislation of one or more Member States; |
|
(18) |
Whereas there is a need to determine the amount of a pension calculated in accordance with the method used for aggregation and pro rata calculation and guaranteed by Community law where the application of national legislation, including rules concerning reduction, suspension or withdrawal, is less favourable than the aforementioned method; |
|
(19) |
Whereas, to protect migrant workers and their survivors against excessively stringent application of the national rules concerning reduction, suspension or withdrawal, it is necessary to include provisions strictly governing the application of such rules; |
|
(20) |
Whereas, in respect of benefits for accidents at work and occupational diseases, rules should be laid down, for the purpose of affording protection, covering the situation of persons residing or staying in a Member State other than the competent Member State; |
|
(21) |
Whereas it is necessary to include death grants in sickness benefits in kind; |
|
(22) |
Whereas, in order to permit mobility of persons under improved conditions, it is necessary to ensure closer coordination between the unemployment insurance schemes and the unemployment assistance schemes of all the Member States; |
|
(23) |
Whereas it is therefore particularly appropriate, in order to facilitate the search for employment in the various Member States, to grant to an unemployed worker, within precise limits, the unemployment benefits provided for by the legislation of the Member State to which he was last subject; |
|
(24) |
Whereas, in order to avoid unwanted loss of benefits, there is a need to lay down specific coordination rules for pre-retirement benefits; |
|
(25) |
Whereas, in order to avoid unwarranted overlapping of benefits, there is a need to lay down rules of priority in the case of overlapping of rights to family benefits pursuant to the legislation of the competent State and pursuant to the legislation of the country of residence of the members of the family; |
|
(26) |
Whereas it is necessary to establish an Administrative Commission consisting of a government representative from each of the Member States, charged in particular with dealing with all administrative questions or questions of interpretation arising from the provisions of this Regulation, and with promoting further cooperation between the Member States; |
|
(27) |
Whereas the development and use of telematic services for the exchange of information has been found to require the creation of a Technical Commission, under the aegis of the Administrative Commission on Social Security for Migrant Workers, with specific responsibilities in the field of data-processing; |
|
(28) |
Whereas the use of telematic services for exchanging data between institutions requires provisions guaranteeing that the documents exchanged by electronic means are accepted as equivalent to paper documents; |
|
(29) |
Whereas such exchanges are to be carried out in accordance with the Community provisions on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data; |
|
(30) |
Whereas it is necessary to lay down special provisions which correspond to the special characteristics of the national legislations in order to facilitate the application of the rules of coordination; |
|
(31) |
Whereas, in accordance with the call for simplification made at the Edinburgh Council of December 1992 and in the interests of transparency and readability, it is appropriate to simplify the coordination rules; |
|
(32) |
Whereas it is necessary to repeal Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71, by introducing a new Regulation; |
|
(33) |
Whereas this is in accordance with the provisions of the third paragraph of Article 5 of the Treaty, |
HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

2. If the person involved does not fulfil, at a given moment, the conditions required under all the legislations of the Member States, the institutions administering a legislation whose conditions have been fulfilled must take into consideration, when performing the calculation in accordance with Article 35(1)(a) or (2), the periods completed under the legislations whose conditions have not been fulfilled only if this gives rise to a higher amount of benefit.
3. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply mutatis mutandis when the person involved has expressly requested deferment of the award of the old-age benefit.

4. The periods which have given rise to benefits under a special scheme of a Member State shall likewise be taken into account for granting the benefits of the general scheme or, in default thereof, of the scheme applicable to manual or clerical workers, as the case may be.
Article 35
Award of benefits
1. If the conditions required under the legislation of a Member State for entitlement to benefits are satisfied without recourse to aggregation of periods, the competent institution shall calculate the amount of benefit which will be due:
|
a) |
on the one hand, only pursuant to the provisions of the legislation which it administers (national pension); |
|
b) |
on the other, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 2 (pro-rata pension). |
2. If the conditions required under the legislation of a Member State for entitlement to benefits are satisfied only through aggregation of periods:
|
(a) |
The competent institution shall calculate the theoretical amount of the benefit to which the person involved could lay claim if all the periods of insurance and/or of residence which he has completed under the legislations of the other Member States had been completed under the legislation which it administers, on the date of the award of the benefit. If, under this legislation, the amount does not depend on the duration of the periods completed, the amount shall be regarded as being the theoretical amount. |
|
(b) |
The competent institution shall then establish the actual amount of the benefit (pro rata) by applying to the theoretical amount the ratio between (i) the duration of only the periods completed prior to materialisation of the risk under the legislation which the institution administers and (ii) the total duration of the periods completed prior to materialisation of the risk under the legislation of all the Member States concerned. |
3. Where appropriate, the competent institution shall apply to the amount calculated in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 2 above all the rules relating to reduction, suspension or withdrawal under the legislation pursuant to which the benefit is due, within the limits provided for by the provisions of Articles 36 to 38 of this Chapter.
4. The insured person shall be entitled to receive from the competent institution of each country whichever of the amounts — that due through application of national law or that which would be due through application of Community law — is higher.
Article 36
Rules relating to reduction, suspension or withdrawal applicable to benefits in respect of invalidity, old age or survivors pursant to the legislations of the Member States (Rules to prevent overlapping) — General provisions
1. Save as otherwise provided for in this Chapter, the rules relating to reduction, suspension or withdrawal under the legislation of a Member State in cases of a benefit overlapping with other social security benefits pertaining to the same period of compulsory insurance or with any other forms of income may be invoked against the beneficiary even where such benefits were acquired under the legislation of another Member State or where such incomes were acquired in the territory of another Member State.
2. The rules to prevent overlapping contained in the legislation of a Member State in the case of a person in receipt of invalidity benefits or early old-age benefits pursuing an activity as an employed or self-employed person may be invoked against such a person even though he is pursuing his activity in the territory of another Member State.
3. Any overlapping of invalidity, old-age and survivors' benefits calculated or provided on the basis of insurance and/or residence periods completed by the same person shall be considered to be overlapping of benefits of the same kind.
4. Overlapping of benefits which cannot be considered to be of the same kind within the meaning of paragraph 3 shall be considered to be overlapping of benefits of a different kind.
5. The competent institution must take into consideration the benefits or incomes acquired abroad only if the legislation which it administers makes explicit provision therefor.
6. The competent institution must take into account the amount of benefits to be paid by another Member State before deduction of tax, social security contributions and other individual deductions.
7. The competent institution must not take account of the amount of benefits acquired under the legislation of another Member State on the basis of voluntary insurance or continued optional insurance.
8. If a single Member State applies rules to prevent overlapping because the person involved receives benefits of the same kind or of a different kind pursuant to the legislation of other Member States or incomes acquired in the territory of other Member States, the benefit due may be reduced solely by the total amount of benefits due pursuant to the legislation of the other Member States or by the incomes acquired in their territory.
Article 37
Overlapping of benefits of the same kind due under the legislation of two or more Member States — Special provisions
1. The rules to prevent overlapping provided for under the legislation of a Member State shall not apply to a benefit calculated in accordance with Article 35(2) — pro rata.
2. A benefit calculated in accordance with Article 35(1)(a) — national benefit — may be reduced, suspended or withdrawn by application of the rules to prevent overlapping provided for under the legislation of a Member State only if it is:
|
a) |
a benefit, the amount of which does not depend on the duration of insurance or residence periods, or |
|
b) |
a benefit, the amount of which is determined on the basis of a credited period between the materialisation of the risk and a later date, overlapping with either:
|
Article 38
Overlapping of one or more national benefits with one or more benefits of a different kind or with other incomes where two or more Member States are concerned — Special provisions
1. If the receipt of benefits of a different kind or other incomes engenders application of the rules to prevent overlapping as regards:
|
a) |
two or more benefits calculated in accordance with national legislation, the competent institutions must divide the amounts, which would not be paid in the event of strict application of the rules to prevent overlapping, by the number of benefits subject to the said rules; |
|
b) |
two or more benefits calculated in accordance with the pro rata method, the competent institutions shall take into account the benefit or benefits of the other Member States or the other incomes and all the elements stipulated for applying the rules to prevent overlapping as a function of the ratio between the periods of insurance and/or residence established for the calculation referred to in Article 35(2)(b) (pro rata) of such benefits; |
|
c) |
one or more benefits calculated in accordance with national legislation and one or more pro rata benefits, the competent institutions shall apply the rules to prevent overlapping:
|
2. The competent institution shall not apply the stipulated division in respect of national benefits if the legislation which it administers provides for account to be taken of benefits of a different kind and/or of other incomes and all the elements for calculating part of their amount determined as a function of the ratio between the periods of insurance referred to in Article 35(2)(b).
3. All the abovementioned provisions shall apply mutatis mutandis where the legislation of one or more Member States provides that a benefit cannot be granted in the case where a person receives a benefit of a different kind pursuant to the legislation of another Member State or other incomes.
Article 39
Additional provisions for the calculation of benefits
1. For the calculation of the theoretical and pro rata amounts referred to in Article 35(2), the following rules shall apply:
|
a) |
the competent institution shall take into consideration the maximum duration required under the legislation which it administers if the total duration of the periods of insurance and/or residence completed prior to materialisation of the risk under the legislations of all the Member States concerned exceeds the said maximum duration. This provision shall not apply to benefits whose amount does not depend on the duration of the periods of insurance; |
|
b) |
the competent institution shall take into account overlapping periods in accordance with the procedure laid down in the Implementing Regulation referred to in Article 72; |
|
c) |
if the legislation of a Member State provides that the benefits shall be calculated on the basis of incomes, contributions, increases or amounts (average, proportional, fixed or credited), the competent institution shall:
|
2. The theoretical amount of a benefit calculated on the basis of the elements referred to in the preceding paragraph must be duly revalued and increased as though the person involved had continued to pursue his activity under the same conditions in the Member State concerned.
Article 40
Award of a supplement where the total of benefits due under the legislations of the various Member States does not amount to the minimum laid down by the legislation of the recipient's State of residence
A recipient of benefits to whom this Chapter has been applied may not be awarded a benenfit which is less than the minimum benefit fixed, for a period of insurance or residence equal to all the periods taken into account for the award in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter, by the legislation of the State where he resides and under which a benefit is due to him.
The competent institution of that State shall pay him throughout the period of his residence in its territory a supplement equal to the difference between the total of the benefits due pursuant to this Chapter and the amount of the minimum benefit.
Article 41
Revaluation and recalculation of benefits
1. If, by reason of an increase in the cost of living or changes in the level of incomes or other reasons for adjustment, the benefits of the States concerned are altered by a certain percentage or amount, such percentage or amount must be applied directly to the benefits determined in accordance with Article 35, without the need for a recalculation in accordance with that Article.
2. On the other hand, if the method of determining benefits or the rules for calculating benefits should be altered, a recalculation shall be carried out in accordance with Article 35.

1. Without prejudice to the more favourable provisions of paragraph 2, Articles 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 27 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the benefits relating to accidents at work and occupational diseases.
2.

(Codecision procedure: first reading)
The European Parliament,
|
— |

|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 4 September 2002 on the mid- term review of the Daphne programme (2000-2003) (2), |

Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 3 September 2003 with a view to the adoption of European Parliament and Council Decision No .../2003/EC establishing a second phase of a programme of Community action (2004-2008) to prevent violence against children, young people and women and to protect victims and groups at-risk (the DAPHNE II programme)
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 152 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions (1),
Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (2),
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Physical, sexual and psychological violence against children, young people and women , including threats of such acts, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or private life, constitute a breach of their right to life, safety, freedom, dignity and physical and emotional integrity and pose a serious threat to the physical and mental health of the victims of such violence. The effects of such violence are so widespread throughout the Community as to constitute a major health scourge and an obstacle to the enjoyment of safe, free and just citizenship. |
|
(2) |
Some groups of women, such as women belonging to minority groups, refugee women, women migrants, women in poverty living in rural or remote communities, women in institutions or in detention, female children, lesbian women, women with disabilities, elderly women, are particularly vulnerable to violence. |
|
(3) |
It is important and necessary to recognise the serious immediate and long-term implications of violence for health, psychological and social development, and for the equal opportunities of those concerned, for individuals, families and communities, and the high social and economic costs to society as a whole. |
|
(4) |
According to the World Health Organisation's definition, health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. A World Health Assembly resolution (3) adopted at the 49th World Health Assembly in Geneva in 1996 declares that violence is a leading world-wide public health problem. The World report on violence and health presented by the World Health Organisation in Brussels on 3 October 2002 recommends to promote primary prevention responses, to strengthen responses for victims of violence and to increase collaboration and exchange of information on violence prevention. |
|
(5) |
These principles are recognised in numerous conventions, declarations and protocols claimed by the main International Institutions such as the United Nations, the International Labour Organisation, the World Conference on Women and the World Congress against Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children. This important work performed by international organisations should be complemented by that of the European Union. Indeed, Article 3(p) of the Treaty requires Community action to include a contribution to the attainment of a high level of health protection. |
|
(6) |
The Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (4) reaffirms inter alia the rights to dignity, equality and solidarity. It includes a number of specific provisions to protect and promote the physical and mental integrity, equal treatment for men and women, the rights of the child and non-discrimination, as well as to prohibit inhuman or degrading treatment, slavery and forced labour, and child labour. |
|
(7) |
The Commission has been called upon to draw up and implement action programmes to combat such violence by the European Parliament, inter alia in its resolutions of 19 May 2000 on the Commission's communication entitled ‘Further actions in the fight against trafficking in women’ (5), and of 20 September 2001 on female genital mutilation (6). |
|
(8) |
The action programme set up by Decision No 293/2000/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 January 2000 adopting a programme of Community action (the Daphne programme) (2000 to 2003) on preventive measures to fight violence against children, young people and women (7), has helped increase awareness within the European Union and increase and consolidate co-operation between organisations in the Member States active in combating violence. |
|
(9) |
The Daphne programme (2000-2003) has received an overwhelming response and clearly meets a deeply felt need within the voluntary sector. The funded projects have already started to have multiplying effects on activities by non governmental organisations and institutions in Europe. During its first phase, this programme has already substantially contributed to the development of EU policy on violence, trafficking, sexual abuse and pornography, with implications well beyond the boundaries of the European Union, as mentioned in the mid-term report of the Daphne programme. |
|
(10) |
The programme will pay attention to the situation of street children — a situation which is becoming dramatic not only in the developing countries, but also in the cities of the applicant countries, as street children are not only victims of traffickers in drugs and human beings, but also suffer violence and sexual abuse. If these children are to be reintegrated into society, a programme is needed which provides answers to social and family problems and takes account of these children's needs. |
|
(11) |
In its resolution of 4 September 2002 on the mid-term review of the 2000-2003 Daphne programme, the European Parliament stresses that the Daphne programme meets a basic need for effective strategies to combat violence and that it must continue beyond 2003, and calls on the Commission to submit a proposal for a new action programme which incorporates all experience acquired since 1997 and which is allocated appropriate funding. |
|
(12) |
It is desirable to ensure continuity for the projects supported by the Daphne programme (2000-2003), to carry on building on the experiences gained and to provide opportunities for ongoing European added value stemming from these experiences and, to this end to renew the programme for a second phase. |
|
(13) |
The Community can provide added value to the actions predominantly to be undertaken by Member States concerning the prevention of violence, abuse and sexual exploitation perpetrated against women, young people and children and the protection of victims and groups at risk through the dissemination and exchange of information and experience, the promotion of an innovative approach, the joint establishment of priorities, the development of networking as appropriate, the selection of Community-wide projects and the motivation and mobilisation of all parties concerned. This shall also encompass women and children brought to the Member States through human trafficking. The Community can also identify and stimulate good practice. |
|
(14) |
This programme can bring added value by identifying and stimulating good practice, by encouraging innovation and by exchanging relevant experience of actions undertaken in the Member States, including an exchange of information relating to the various laws , sanctions and the results achieved. In order to achieve the objectives of the programme and use the resources available in the most efficient way, the areas in which work is to be done must be carefully chosen by selecting projects which offer a greater Community added value and show the way towards trying out and disseminating innovative ideas to prevent and combat violence, in the context of a multidisciplinary approach. |
|
(15) |
Therefore, in accordance with the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty, the objectives of the proposed action (to prevent and combat all forms of violence against children, young people and women) can be better achieved by the Community, due to the need of a co-ordinated and multidisciplinary approach favouring the setting up of transnational frameworks for training, information, study and exchange of good practice, and the selection of Community-wide projects. This Decision confines itself to the minimum required in order to achieve those objectives and does not go beyond what is necessary for that purpose. |
|
(16) |
This phase of the programme should be of a five-year duration in order to allow sufficient time for actions to be implemented to achieve the objectives set and for lessons and experience to be collated and integrated in good practice across the European Union. |
|
(17) |
In accordance with Article 2 of Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (8), measures for the implementation of this Decision should be adopted by use of the advisory procedure provided for in Article 3 of that Decision. |
|
(18) |
This Decision establishes a financial framework for the entire duration of the programme which is to be the principal point of reference for the budgetary authority, within the meaning of point 33 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 6 May 1999 between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline and improvement of the budgetary procedure (9). |

|
a) |
prevention (general or targeting specific groups); |
|
b) |
protection and support to victims (psychological , medical , social, educational and legal assistance, the provision of accomodation, the removal and protection of victims, training and reintegration into the social and working life); |
|
c) |
procedures to protect the best interests of children, young people and women who are the victims of violence; |
|

2. Mapping surveys, studies and research
Objective: to study phenomena related to violence.
To support research activities, gender- and age-based studies and mapping surveys in the field of violence, in order, inter alia:
|
a) |
to explore and assess the various causes, circumstances and mechanisms of the emergence and growth of violence; |
|
b) |
to analyse and compare existing prevention and protection models; |
|
c) |
to develop prevention and protection practice; |
|
d) |
to assess the impact of violence, also in terms of health, both on victims and on society as a whole, including the economic costs; |
|
e) |
to study the scope for developing filters which prevent the forwarding of child pornography material via the Internet; |
|
f) |
to develop programmes to study the situation of street children in cities and encourage specific reintegration measures. |
3. Field work with the involvement of the beneficiaries
Objective: to actively implement proven methods in the prevention and protection from violence.
To support the implementation of methods, training modules and assistance (psychological, medical, social, educational, legal, reintegration) directly involving the beneficiaries.
4. Creation of sustainable multidisciplinary networks
Objective: to support and encourage both non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and other organisations, including local public authorities (at municipal level) active in the fight against violence, to work together.
To support the establishment and strengthening of multidisciplinary networks and to encourage and support co-operation between NGOs and the various organisations and public bodies, in order to improve the level of knowledge and understanding of one another's roles and to provide comprehensive multidisciplinary support to victims of violence and to those at risk.
The networks will, in particular, carry out activities to address the problems of violence geared to:
|
a) |
producing a common framework for the analysis of violence, including the definition of different types of violence, the causes of violence and all its consequences, and for the implementation of appropriate multi-sector responses; |
|
b) |
assessing the types and effectiveness of measures and practices for the prevention and detection of violence, and for the provision of support for victims of violence, in particular to ensure that they are never again exposed to violence; |
|
c) |
promoting activities to tackle this problem at both international and national level. |
5. Training and design of educational packages
Objective: to develop educational packages on the prevention of violence.
To design and test educational packages on the prevention of violence against children, young people and women, as well as on conflict management, for use in schools , adult educational institutions, associations, undertakings, public institutions and NGOs.
6. development and implementation of treatment programmes
Objective: to develop and implement treatments for aggressors, on the one side, and for victims and potential victims on the other, with the aim of preventing violence.
To detect the possible causes, circumstances and mechanisms of the emergence and growth of violence including the nature and motivation of perpetrators of violence and exploiters of commercial violence such as sexual exploitation.
To develop, test and implement treatments based on the above findings.
7. Awareness-raising activities targeted to specific audiences
Objective: to raise awareness and the level of understanding of violence and the prevention of violence against children, young people and women with the aim of promoting zero tolerance of violence, the provision of support to victims and groups at risk, and the reporting of incidences of violence.
The following types of actions, amongst others, are eligible for support:
|
a) |
development and implementation of information and awareness-raising activities aimed at children, young people and women, in particular on the potential risks of violence and ways of avoiding them; other publics to be targeted could also include specific professions such as teachers, educators, medical doctors, social workers, lawyers, police authorities, the media , etc; |
|
b) |
development of Community-wide information sources to assist and inform NGOs and public bodies about publicly available information relevant to the field of violence, the means of preventing it and the rehabilitation of victims, compiled by governmental, non-governmental, academic and other sources; this should enable information to be integrated into all the relevant information systems; |
|
c) |
encouragement of the introduction of measures to increase reporting to the authorities of violence against women, children and young people and different forms of trade in women and children for sexual exploitation; |
|
d) |
promotion of publicity campaigns, using the mass media, focusing on the condemnation of violence and the provision of support for victims in the form of psychological, moral and practical assistance. |
The design of materials to supplement those already available, or their adaptation for use in other geographical areas or for other target groups will be encouraged.
II. COMPLEMENTARY ACTIONS
In order to ensure that all areas of the programme are fully covered, even in the absence of proposals — or suitable proposals — for a given area, the Commission will carry out more proactive activities to fill any gaps.
Consequently, the programme will finance complementary actions, on the Commission's initiative, in the following areas, inter alia:
|
a) |
the development of indicators on violence, so that the quantified impact of policies and projects can be measured. This should be based on existing experience and strengthened by means of a permanent monitoring mechanism to record progress and identify gaps relating to all forms of violence against women; |
|
b) |
the establishment of a procedure for regular and sustainable data collection, preferably with the assistance of Eurostat, in order to be able to quantify violence in the Union more accurately; |
|
c) |
the setting up, in conjunction with Interpol and Europol, of a European database for missing persons which would include specifically recorded details of missing persons believed to be the victims of traffickers; |
|
d) |
the extraction and deduction of policy issues, wherever possible, from the work achieved by funded projects, with the aim of suggesting common policies on violence at Community level and reinforcing judicial practice; |
|
e) |
the establishment of a think-tank to provide guidelines and orientations to the Commission on the social, cultural and political context in order to facilitate the priorities for the selection of projects and complementary actions. The think-tank would be composed of representatives of the European Parliament's competent committee and include representatives of major non-governmental organisations in the field of violence; |
|
f) |
the analysis/evaluation of the projects financed in order to prepare for a European year against violence; |
|
g) |
to dissemination, on a Europe-wide scale, of good practices stemming from funded projects; this can be achieved by various means:
|
|
h) |
the carrying out of feasibility studies and surveys with a view to initiating a European year of action against violence; |
|
i) |
the organisation of seminars for all stakeholders involved in funded projects in order to improve management and networking capability and to support information exchange; |
|
j) |
the carrying out of studies and the organisation of meetings of experts and seminars directly connected with the realisation of the action of which they form an integral part. |
In addition, the Commission may have recourse, in carrying out the programme, to technical assistance organisations, the financing of which will be provided for within the overall financial framework and, under the same conditions, to experts.

Economic accounts for agriculture ***I
European Parliament legislative resolution on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council regulation on the economic accounts for agriculture in the Community (COM(2003) 50 — C5-0020/2003 — 2003/0023(COD))
(Codecision procedure: first reading)
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the Commission proposal to the European Parliament and the Council (COM(2003) 50) (1), |
|
— |
having regard to Article 251(2) and Article 285 of the EC Treaty, pursuant to which the Commission submitted the proposal to Parliament (C5-0020/2003), |
|

having regard to Rule 67 of its Rules of Procedure, |

Legal bases and compliance with Community law
European Parliament resolution on legal bases and compliance with Community law (2001/2151(INI))
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to Rule 163 of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Legal Affairs and the Internal Market (A5-0180/2003), |
|
A. |
having regard to the various legislative proposals put forward by the Commission, in particular the proposals for directives of the European Parliament and of the Council on the protection of the environment through criminal law (1), on the criminal-law protection of the Community's financial interests (2), on measures and procedures to ensure the enforcement of intellectual property rights (COM(2003) 46), on ship-source pollution and on the introduction of sanctions, including criminal sanctions, for pollution offences (COM(2003) 92) and the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on official feed and food controls (COM(2003) 52), seeking to ensure greater compliance with Community legislation through recourse to criminal law, |
|
B. |
whereas the effective application of Community law is one of the main concerns of Community bodies and is a fundamental obligation for Member States, |
|
C. |
whereas the goal of effective implementation of international law appears on several occasions and in various forms in the Treaty, for example in the references to the need to take measures and to take action to ensure that such measures are effective, |
|
D. |
whereas, in the proposals in question, the aim is to require the Member States, on the basis of Community legislation (mixed method), to impose criminal sanctions for certain serious infringements of Community law, and not directly to lay down criminal-law rules or achieve criminal-law harmonisation, |
|
E. |
whereas it is necessary to examine whether the EC Treaty provides legal bases enabling the Community to require Member States to lay down criminal sanctions to ensure compliance with Community law and, if so, where the limits would lie in relation to the provisions of Title VI of the Treaty on European Union, |
|
F. |
whereas it is necessary to determine the scope of the Community's competence to oblige Member States to impose penalties for breaches of Community law, which could range from the simple criminalisation of certain types of conduct or infringements, to the harmonisation of penalties or even the approximation of provisions on judicial competence, |
|
G. |
whereas Parliament is in favour of giving the Community legislator the legal capacity to require Member States to lay down sanctions to ensure compliance with Community law, |
|
H. |
whereas the uncertainty as to whether the Community is competent to require Member States to impose criminal penalties for serious breaches of Community law, and as to the conditions and scope of this requirement, has led to hesitation over making use of this possibility, |
|
I. |
whereas the European Parliament has expressed concern at the lack of legal certainty deriving from the coexistence of two parallel legal frameworks, the first and third pillars, |
|
J. |
whereas the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union will shortly become binding, |
|
K. |
whereas the case law of the Court of Justice does not rule out the possibility that the measures needed to ensure the application and effectiveness of Community law may involve criminal penalties, |
|
L. |
whereas the case law of the Court of Justice in this area remains limited and the Court has not yet had the opportunity to express its views on the limits and characteristics of the Community's power to oblige the Member States to impose criminal sanctions, |
|
1. |
Points out that, in accordance with the principle of loyalty laid down in Article 10 of the EC Treaty, Member States are required to ensure that breaches of Community law are punished by sanctions which are effective, proportionate and dissuasive, similar to those which apply to comparable breaches of national law and that the Community legislator can thus establish the principle of these sanctions; |
|
2. |
Considers that the Community legislator has the legal capacity to require Member States to lay down sanctions that are sufficiently dissuasive to ensure compliance with Community law; |
|
3. |
Considers that, while the EC Treaty does not provide a legal basis enabling the European Union itself to make provision for a general legal basis for criminal sanctions to ensure compliance with obligations, Article 10 of the Treaty nevertheless provides a general legal basis for requiring Member States to ensure compliance with Community law through various penalties, including criminal penalties, and that there is a legal basis for defining in broad terms the types of conduct which should be criminalised and the conditions for so doing; |
|
4. |
Calls on the Council to comply with Articles 29 and 47 of the Treaty on European Union, which clearly establish the primacy of the EC Treaty over the EU Treaty and hence the fact that an instrument based on Title VI of the EU Treaty cannot be adopted when the EC Treaty provides the possibility of achieving the same objective; |
|
5. |
Considers that the Community's competence to require Member States to make provision for criminal penalties must be limited, as the law stands at present, to cases in which the Community legislator considers that compliance with Community law can only be safeguarded by such means; |
|
6. |
Points out that the case law of the Court of Justice, under which Member States are required to ensure penalties which are effective, dissuasive and proportionate, similar to those laid down for breaches of national law, falls within the framework of the obligation of loyal cooperation provided for by Article 10 and includes, a fortiori, the Community's right to make provision for such an obligation; |
|
7. |
Considers that, although Article 10 of the EC Treaty requires Member States to take all measures, including criminal law measures, to deal effectively with breaches of Community law, under no circumstances does it require Member States to adopt specific criminal law measures, if effective application of Community law can be secured through less stringent measures in accordance with the principles of proportionality and subsidiarity; |
|
8. |
Considers that the Commission, in its capacity as guardian of Community interests, should be able to lodge complaints or bring civil actions, at least in cases where the Member States are accorded an equivalent right; |
|
9. |
Calls on the IGC to examine the current situation, which is unsatisfactory, and clearly define the Community's competence in criminal matters, setting forth clearly its scope and, where appropriate, its limits and, if the pillar structure is retained, to also determine its limits and its relationship with the Community pillar; |
|
10. |
Calls on the IGC to establish a corpus of substantive criminal law for offences affecting the common European interest or common European policies; |
|
11. |
Calls on the IGC to define at European level the general principles of criminal law that should govern the Member States' obligations as regards the adoption of criminal penalties (principles of legality, non-retroactivity of sentences, ne bis in idem, etc.); |
|
12. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission and the governments of the Member States. |

Implementing the social policy agenda
European Parliament resolution on the scoreboard on implementing the social policy agenda (COM(2003) 57 — 2003/2097(INI))
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the Commission communication (COM(2003) 57), |
|
— |
having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Nice European Council of 7, 8 and 9 December 2000 and to Annex I on the European social agenda, |
|
— |
having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Stockholm European Council of 23 and 24 March 2001, |
|
— |
having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Barcelona European Council of 15 and 16 March 2002, |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 25 October 2000 (1) on the Commission communication on the social policy agenda, |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 7 February 2002 (2) on the Commission communication on the scoreboard on implementing the social policy agenda, |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 4 September 2002 (3) on the Commission communication on the scoreboard on implementing the social policy agenda, |
|
— |
having regard to Rules 47(2) and 163 of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs (A5-0247/2003), |
|
A. |
whereas the purpose of the yearly scoreboard used to assess implementation of the social policy agenda, which the Commission submits to Parliament, should be to keep track of achievements, warn of delays in the implementation of the projected measures, and form the basis for proposed adjustments to remedy gaps and shortcomings at the practical level or to tackle such new problems as might have arisen in the intervening period, |
|
B. |
whereas economic activity is slowing down at an alarming rate; whereas the recent spring forecasts are adding to the fears of a rise in unemployment, poverty and social exclusion, which are giving cause for particular anxiety in the economically and socially weaker regions — a fact which is hampering economic and social cohesion, |
|
C. |
whereas economic growth, education and the creation of high-quality jobs are the most effective means of tackling social exclusion, |
|
D. |
whereas immigrants, women, people with disabilities and other disadvantaged groups are continuing to encounter significant obstacles on the labour market, |
|
E. |
whereas in order to achieve the Lisbon goals by 2010, it will be necessary to create more than 15 million new high-quality jobs with associated rights; whereas the spring forecasts suggest that this target might not be met, |
|
F. |
whereas the structural weaknesses identified on the labour market are largely to blame for lasting poverty and social exclusion, which are being aggravated by other factors such as health problems and disability, family break-ups, a lack of basic training and housing problems, |
|
G. |
whereas the most recent income figures show that 15 % of the population, that is to say about 56 million people, are at risk of poverty, since they are living below a threshold defined to be 60 % of the national average income; whereas 9 % of the EU's population face a persistent risk of poverty, since they have remained in that position for at least two out of the last three years, |
|
H. |
whereas social security is vital to reduce the risk of poverty; whereas without welfare transfers, the poverty risk would have amounted to 24 % (if one excludes pensions from the definition of welfare transfers) or 40 % (including pensions), |
|
I. |
whereas at the last spring European Council in Brussels of 20-21 March 2003, an Employment Task Force was set up, |
|
J. |
whereas the relocation of multinational companies causes unemployment rates to rise in the areas affected by the displacement, and whereas, therefore, both society and the undertakings concerned should make every effort to minimise the adverse consequences, |
|
K. |
whereas the mid-term review of the 2000-2006 Structural Fund programmes, due to be carried out this year, offers an opportunity to coordinate Structural Fund programmes, especially under the European Social Fund, with the aims set out in the national action plans for social inclusion, the second series of which is being drawn up by the Member States, |
|
L. |
whereas school drop-out rates are still very high in some Member States; whereas an insufficient effort has been made in the provision of childcare facilities and in the area of pre-school education; whereas the levels of investment in education, training, and lifelong learning are still unsatisfactory; whereas the figures available point to an underinvestment in human capital, |
|
M. |
whereas tools and policies to help improve the social situation in the Union are still proving slow to produce, |
|
N. |
whereas, in view of the accession of the ten applicant countries which have weaker social indicators, it is necessary to redouble efforts to enable progress to be made towards economic and social cohesion, in terms of a better quality of life and greater social justice, |
|
1. |
Notes the Commission communication on the scoreboard on implementing the social policy agenda and hopes that the forthcoming mid-term review report will take Parliament's opinions into account and focus in particular on the costs incurred in not introducing high-quality social policy; |
|
2. |
Considers that the value of the scoreboard will increase in proportion to the extent to which it provides a picture of the implementation of the social agenda in a relatively long-term perspective rather than merely reporting on the Commission's work in the previous year and its plans for the current year; hopes that the next scoreboard will indicate to what extent the objectives of the revised social agenda have been achieved; |
|
3. |
Deplores the continuing high levels, in some Member States, of both unemployment and poverty, including lasting poverty, and calls for the solutions to these problems to be treated as a priority in Community policies, not least in the mid-term review of the Structural Funds and the Stability Pact; to this end, calls on Member States, in conjunction with the social partners and other stakeholders, to step up efforts to implement the Employment Guidelines; |
|
4. |
Is concerned about the remaining prevalent weaknesses identified in the scoreboard which must be urgently tackled and which include the continuing high levels of long-term unemployment, the continued low employment rates for women, the unequal distribution of employment rates according to age levels — older and younger workers in particular being confronted with significant obstacles to the labour market — and the persistence of regional labour market bottlenecks and skill shortages; |
|
5. |
Repeats its call for the policy initiatives announced in the social policy agenda to be put into effect, to that end making use of the scoreboard, which in each instance should specify the policy method employed (legislation, state of play regarding the open method of coordination, negotiation with the social partners, newly devised indicators, warnings given, etc.), the parties responsible and the time frames; |
|
6. |
Notes the setting-up of an Employment Task Force chaired by Wim Kok; urges that the objectives of the Employment Task Force should be more clearly defined, particularly since bodies in this area already exist;expects it to increase the readiness to implement the Employment Strategy in the Member States and calls for close cooperation between the Task Force, the Commission and the Employment Committee; welcomes the setting-up of the Tripartite Social Summit; expects to be involved in the work arising from these initiatives and, in future, to be consulted in relation to the setting-up of such new bodies and working parties; |
|
7. |
Deplores the fact that the Commission is still failing to provide new initiatives in areas already highlighted by Parliament and urges that such initiatives be rapidly drawn up, specifically with a view to:
|
|
8. |
Notes the work programme of the social dialogue for 2003-2005; calls on the Commission to support the actions of the social partners and to use its right of initiative to further develop the European regulatory framework; |
|
9. |
Calls on the Commission to propose a revision of Directive 93/104/EC so as to clarify the definition of working time and the period of availability for work; |
|
10. |
Calls on the Commission to respond to the request made in Parliament's position of 12 June 2002 (8) on the implementation of the principle of equal treatment for men and women by submitting a proposal for a directive, based on Article 141(3) of the Treaty, recognising paid paternity leave as an inalienable individual right that cannot be forgone, bearing in mind that the fact that women have to be absent from work because they are exercising their right to maternity leave — when there is no compulsory paid paternity leave — is one of the main reasons for discrimination against them; |
|
11. |
Hopes that the Second Round Table on Poverty and Social Exclusion, due to be held in Turin on 16 and 17 October 2003, will be a defining moment in assessing the outcome of the implementation of the first national action plans for social inclusion; also hopes that it will contribute to the implementation of an effective social inclusion policy, which the second national plans for social inclusion, now being drawn up by the Member States, must treat as a priority, focusing in particular on the integration of immigrants, education, including lifelong learning, and vocational training; |
|
12. |
Calls on the Commission and Member States to ensure the correct, full and timely implementation of existing directives, in particular those adopted on the basis of Article 13 of the Treaty; also calls on the Commission not to hesitate in pursuing infringement actions against Member States in this regard; |
|
13. |
Welcomes the communication from the Commission on the joint report concerning ‘Increasing labour force participation and promoting active ageing’ (COM(2002) 9); welcomes the recent agreement between the European social partners on older employees in the trade sector; stresses that in the next few years, active and coordinated measures relating to the employment of older people must be further developed by the Commission, Member States and social partners; |
|
14. |
Insists on the need to submit, during the European Year of People with Disabilities, a proposal for a directive, based on Article 13 of the Treaty, with a view to combating discrimination on grounds of disability; |
|
15. |
Points to the need for increased investment in the provision of childcare facilities and in the area of pre-school education, given that the current levels are still unsatisfactory; also calls for greater investment in education, training and lifelong learning in several Member States, objectives in respect of which a system of guaranteed public, free and quality education is of vital importance, with particular regard to information technologies, in order to address the problem of the high rates of school drop-outs and of those seeking early retirement, to improve educational and training conditions, to pave the way for women to participate in the labour market and to promote efforts to reconcile work and family life for men and women; |
|
16. |
Stresses the importance of measures to combat undeclared work; welcomes the article relating to this in the proposed Guidelines for the Employment Policies of the Member States (COM(2003) 176); reiterates its call for the Commission to adopt initiatives to combat undeclared work, including the assignment of special status to jobs which do not fall within the standard categories, such as domestic work and child care; |
|
17. |
Points out that, in view of the accession of the ten applicant countries which have weaker social indicators, it will be necessary to redouble efforts to enable progress to be made towards economic and social convergence in terms of a better quality of life and greater social justice; |
|
18. |
Hopes that the European Union will continue to support and contribute directly to an understanding of the full scale of the problem of poverty and social exclusion in the outermost regions, with a view to devising social inclusion policies for those regions and promoting specific support measures in various areas; |
|
19. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission. |

The rights and dignity of the disabled
European Parliament resolution on the Communication from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament ‘Towards a United Nations legally binding instrument to promote and protect the rights and dignity of persons with disabilities’ (COM(2003) 16 — 2003/2100(INI))
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the Commission Communication (COM(2003) 16), |
|
— |
having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (CESE 407/2003), |
|
— |
having regard to Article 13 TEC and Article 21 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights (1) on combating discrimination including on the basis of disability, and having regard to Article 6 TEU and to Article 14 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, which prohibits all forms of discrimination, |
|
— |
having regard to Article 26 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights on the integration of disabled people and their right to benefit from measures designed to ensure this, |
|
— |
having regard to its resolutions on sign languages of 17 June 1988 (2) and of 18 November 1998 (3) and to its resolution of 4 April 2001 (4) on a barrier-free Europe for disabled people and its position of 15 November 2001 (5) on the European Year of People with Disabilities 2003, |
|
— |
having regard to the principles expressed in the Madrid Declaration (March 2002) and to the practical results of European Union initiatives such as ‘Districts’ (1983-1987), ‘Helios I’ (1987-1991) and ‘Helios II’ (1993-1997), and the current Community action programme (2001-2006) to combat all discrimination, including discrimination on the grounds of disability, |
|
— |
having regard to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1948, the United Nations (UN) Declaration on the Rights of Mentally Retarded Persons 1971, the UN Declaration on the Rights of Disabled Persons 1975, the UN ‘Standard Rules for the Equalisation of Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities’ 1993 and all other human rights instruments, |
|
— |
having regard to the conclusions of the 2002 meeting of the UN Ad Hoc Committee on a comprehensive and integral international Convention on the protection and promotion of the rights and dignity of persons with disabilities, as set up by Resolution 56/168, |
|
— |
having regard to Rules 47(2) and 163 of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs and the opinion of the Committee on Citizens' Freedoms and Rights, Justice and Home Affairs (A5-0270/2003), |
|
A. |
whereas the approximately 600 million disabled people in the world are often among the poorest of the poor and the most vulnerable, with over two-thirds living in developing countries, and whereas, in many countries, they continue to be excluded and denied fundamental human rights, such as education and access to gainful employment, and still lack access to the built environment as well as to information and communication, |
|
B. |
whereas there are around 40 million people in the European Union with various types of disabilities, |
|
C. |
whereas the situation of disabled people ought to be assessed from the perspective of human rights and not from one of charity, which means viewing disabled people as people with rights and not as problem-generators, |
|
D. |
whereas many people with intellectual, psychiatric and physical disabilities in some countries are still kept in institutions, in many cases as a result of a lack of tailored facilities allowing for an independent life, and are sometimes subjected to indignities and inhuman treatment (such as being restrained in locked cage-beds or in other ways), |
|
E. |
whereas this year marks the 10th anniversary of the UN Standard Rules for disabled people, which is not however a legally binding instrument, |
|
F. |
whereas 2003 is also the European Year of People with Disabilities and the start of the second successive Asian and Pacific Decade of Disabled People (2003-2012) and whereas the period 2000-2009 has been designated as the African Decade of Disabled People, |
|
G. |
whereas there is a need to enhance the profile of issues relating to disability in order to raise public awareness in the present and future EU Member States, |
|
H. |
whereas individual sign languages and alphabets have evolved independently within Member States, |
|
1. |
Welcomes the fact that by virtue of Council Decision 2001/903/EC (6) the Council of the European Union declared 2003 the ‘European Year of People with Disabilities’ as a means of profiling the issues relating to disability and giving political impetus at both EU and international level to equal rights for disabled people; |
|
2. |
Welcomes the initiative of the Government of Mexico and the UN General Assembly to set up an Ad Hoc Committee to consider proposals for an international convention to protect and promote the rights and dignity of disabled persons; welcomes the decision of the Ad Hoc Committee in 2003 to establish a Working Group to prepare and present a draft text which would be the basis for negotiation when drawing up the draft Convention by UN Member States and Observers at the next Ad Hoc Committee, as well as a basis for the participation of disabled people's NGOs; |
|
3. |
Welcomes the Commission Communication setting out its position regarding this possible Convention and stresses that while the Commission is calling for a UN Convention it has failed to provide any timetable for a future comprehensive EU Directive on disabled people's rights; nor has it made any real political commitments to mainstream disabled people's rights within its development cooperation policy; |
|
4. |
Notes that the EU Member States do not have specific regulations that take into account the special circumstances of disabled people in general terms, and that their judicial systems perpetuate great disparities in this area; |
|
5. |
Notes that the measures the European Union has adopted with regard to disabled people have been minimal and relate almost exclusively to the establishing of a general framework for equal treatment in employment in the context of the combating of discrimination laid down in Article 13 TEC; |
|
6. |
Insists that the European Union must lead the way, regardless of the outcome of the UN proceedings, in introducing a Directive on the rights of disabled people; |
|
7. |
Calls on the Member States to include in the future European Union Constitution, in the Article relating to the objectives of the European Union, a specific reference to the ‘protection of the rights of disabled people’; |
|
8. |
Recommends that all measures proposed on the legal basis of Article 13 TEC should move from unanimity to qualified majority voting; |
|
9. |
Insists that the outcome of this process must be a legally binding Convention with an effective monitoring mechanism, similar to the six human rights conventions that have already been adopted by the UN, including the three specific Conventions on combating discrimination against children and women and racial discrimination; calls on EU Member States to agree to work towards this outcome and to help make the future Convention meaningful in even the poorest countries of the world by prioritising disabled people and their rights within EU and national development and cooperation policies; |
|
10. |
Believes that the current and future EU Member States must play a leading role in making sure organisations of disabled people and organisations representing disabled people are fully involved in the drafting and monitoring of the implementation of the Convention; calls for the European Parliament also to be involved in this process as part of the EU contribution; |
|
11. |
Believes that the viewpoint of disabled people themselves must form part of the negotiations and emphasises the importance of ensuring that families, parents and guardians have an input into the process and that organisations of and representing disabled people should also be actively involved in the process; |
|
12. |
Considers that the objectives of the Convention should be:
|
|
13. |
Considers that all the parties concerned would reap practical benefits, since the precise obligations in the sphere of disability of the States party to that Convention and of the European Union would be clarified, and civil society would also be able to focus on a coherent set of standards rather than on the six different current sets of human rights standards adopted by the UN; |
|
14. |
Considers that the Convention should be binding on all States parties; |
|
15. |
Believes that a future Convention on the rights of disabled people should be based on and include the following principles:
|
|
16. |
Considers that, wherever possible, the rights should be legally enforceable with concrete deadlines for their achievement; |
|
17. |
Believes that the definition of disability should cover all persons with disabilities, irrespective of the level of severity, define disability as the interaction of a person with an impairment and the social barriers, both environmental and attitudinal, and that the definition of discrimination should broadly reflect the one used in Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation (7) and include direct and indirect discrimination, reasonable accommodation (adjustments) and harassment; |
|
18. |
Considers that legally enforceable rights should be combined with actions to support the full participation of disabled people in society and to combat prejudice and false images of disabled people; |
|
19. |
Calls on the UN Member States to make sure that at least the following rights of disabled people are specified in the future Convention:
|
|
20. |
Believes that a UN Monitoring Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities should be composed of a majority of disabled people and should be established as a strong and effective monitoring system to identify measures to enhance and surmount obstacles to proper implementation of the Convention by:
|
|
21. |
Instructs on its President to forward this resolution to the United Nations, the Council, the Commission and the governments of the Member States and the future Member States and the government of Mexico. |
